Taylor Swift pulled out all the stops to celebrate her historic Grammy win on Sunday with her team!
The pop singer went home with the award for Best Album of the Year for "Midnights," making her the first artist in the 66-year history of the Grammys to win the prestigious category four times.
However, rather than take all the glory, Taylor shared the credit with her team, treating them to expensive gifts to thank them for their help.
Taylor Swift Shells Out $160K For Designer Gifts
After the big night, the "Cruel Summer" songstress proceeded to treat 30 members of her team to designer gifts worth $160,000. The 14-time Grammy winner reportedly opted for thoughtful gifts from Louis Vuitton and Cartier for the women in her team of advisors, assistants, agents, and managers.
The presents included Cartier shoulder bags — crafted in black-grained calfskin with gold, palladium, or rose gold finish — worth $2,100, which came in black and pink, as well as the Cartier d'Amour necklaces, made of 18K rose gold that retails for $2,500.
"Taylor had a historical year, and on a night where she made history, she is always very grateful and thanking the love and constant support from her team and collaborators," a source told The US Sun about Taylor's generous act. "People felt very emotional when receiving the gifts. Everybody loved them."
The women also received Louis Vuitton handbags estimated at $2,900. The website describes the designer pieces as "The Speedy Bandoulière 20 handbag’s iconic shape becomes softer and gentler in off-white Monogram Empreinte cowhide leather with a muted pastel Monogram print."
As for the men in Taylor's team, the award-winning songstress chose "a small, wonderfully detailed leather bag called the Nano Steamer," which cost $2,500, alongside a larger $3,300 backpack-style bag. Finally, she ordered travel bags from the brand worth $2,500.
"Taylor does a lot for her team and close collaborators, and the team is united and the love is reciprocated," an insider remarked about the gift-giving gesture. "Taylor loves and takes care of them like family, she does a lot for all of them. It's great to have a boss, a collaborator, who treats people like that."
Taylor's celebration with her team for her big win comes after she shut down retirement rumors at the Grammys with the announcement of her 11th studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department."
Taylor Swift Seen 'Chugging Vodka' At Grammys After-Party
Before going home to her team, Taylor got feisty at the Grammys after-party when she was seen chugging what looked to be vodka.
The "Mean" singer attended an after-party with some of her closest friends, Ed Sheeran and Sabrina Carpenter, and was seen letting loose on the dance floor. In a viral video of the fiesta, Taylor was captured chugging a clear bottle of liquid as she chatted with friends.
The "Anti-Hero" singer switched up her look from the custom Schiaparelli white gown she wore to the award ceremony to a fun party dress that featured a gold sequin pattern, spaghetti straps, and a deep-V neckline. Fans seemed in awe of "drunk" Taylor and took to social media to air their opinions.
One fan penned, "The way she doesn't have any songs about getting drunk even though it's like her favorite thing to do," while another remarked, "I love drunk Taylor."
